ABSTRACT:
An improved recovery method utilizes sequence numbers to order log records and reduce the excess compensating actions due to a failure during recovery. Next undo records are written to the log after a preset number of compensating actions which include the sequence number of the record currently being scanned. After a failure, all records between the next undo record and the record having the sequence number included in the next undo record are ignored during when the log is scanned backwards.
